Mansūr; from these three the report was taken by Yaḥyā al-Qaṭṭān and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Mahdī; from them it was handed down to ʿAlī ibn al-Madīnī, and from him to Abū ʿAbd Allah al-Bukhārī—may Allah have mercy upon him.
Al-Haytham ibn ʿAdī said, “Alqamah died during the caliphate of Yazīd.”
Abū Nuʿaym and Qaʿnab ibn Muḥarrir said, “He passed away in the year 61 AH.”
Al-Madāʾinī, Yaḥyā ibn Bukayr, Abū ʿUbayd, Ibn Maʿīn, Ibn Saʿd and several others held that he died in 62 AH.
Another opinion states that he died in 65 AH.
Yet another says 63 AH, but that report is unsound.
Abū Nuʿaym ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Hāniʾ al-Nakhaʿī diverged and said, “He died in 72 AH.” The same has been related from Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah and Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd Allah ibn Numayr.
Other dates have also been mentioned. (1)
Abū Nuʿaym al-Nakhaʿī further said that he lived for ninety years.
Among those of his rank:
15 – Alqamah ibn Waqāṣ ibn Miḥṣan ibn Kaladah al-Laythī* (ʿ), also known as al-ʿUtuwārī, a Medinan and one of the scholars.
He narrated from ʿUmar, ʿĀʾishah, Bilāl ibn al-Ḥārith al-Muzanī, ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ, Ibn ʿUmar and others.
His narrations are few in number.
He was deemed trustworthy by Ibn Saʿd and al-Nasāʾī.
Those who transmitted from him include his two sons—ʿAmr and ʿAbd Allah—together with al-Zuhrī, Ibn Abī Mulaykah, Muḥammad ibn Ibrāhīm al-Taymī, and ʿAmr ibn Yaḥyā al-Māzinī.
He owned a house in Medina and left descendants.
He died during the reign of ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwān. (2)
His hadith are found in all six canonical collections.
